Cracking Down on Visa Sanctions for Irregular Migration and Asylum Regime

The United States Department of State has implemented a new visa restriction policy targeting charter flight operators facilitating irregular migration into Nicaragua. These operators charge exorbitant prices to migrants, putting them at risk on dangerous overland routes to the U.S. border. The U.S. government aims to impose visa restrictions on owners and executives of these companies, while also engaging with regional governments and the private sector to eliminate this exploitative practice. The administration encourages migrants to explore safe and lawful pathways to migrate to the United States.
